"It’s early April and the first third of the month is flying by with very little planting progress so far in the U.S. Soils need to warm up, for the most part, and weather has mostly been cooperative on the temperature side, but precipitation amounts have also been average to above average so far. That leaves some planting completed across the U.S., but, for the most part, we are only about average in planting progress to this point in spite of early snow melt and warm early spring temperatures."http://www.agriculture.com/markets/analysis/crops/analyst-us-corn-planting-pace-just-average
